HI HI HI!

YAY! we're back!
ok, so, as mentioned previously, I'm trying to improve my knit-sewing abilities...
so I ripped up an ugly old knit nightgown of mine, and turned it into this cute Bo Peep top for the Bean:
she seems to like it, right?
there's a little puckering on the side seams, but I can't remember if I ironed it or not, so the puckering might go away. I used a weird honeycomb stitch all along the neckline and sleeves, so that worked out pretty well...
she had a GREAT time posing, because I let her hold my phone...
I didn't shir this one, because the jersey is very thick, and it's pretty warm in these parts already, and that just seemed like it'd be too hot.
anyway, fun times....

About Me

I'm living in my home town of San Pedro, CA, (forgotten suburb of LA), with my WONDERFUL husband, 3 children (and 3 cats, a fish, and 2 big dogs). I love sewing, knitting, embroidery, dancing, reading, and learning new crafts...(when I'm not busy playing trains or construction, of course...) I also love ellipses and parenthetical statements.
